My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Please contact Destiny Sibert (DestinyS@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.small sweetie seeking fresh start and love!

BETTY BOOP NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!!

Name:   Betty Boop         Best Guess for Breed:  Chihuahua mix

Best Guess for Age:  4 years as of December 2025        SEX: Female

 

Approximate Weight:  5.7 lbs

 

Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen her with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!
 

Currently Living at:   Puerto Rico shelter - needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to get up here!

 

Special adoption considerations:     Dogs from Puerto Rico have a major transition to go through when they arrive and will need humans who are very committed to socialization. We think Betty Boop would do best with either a resident dog or a family who can make sure she can go on walks regularly with other dogs, visit the dog park, or go to doggie daycare to learn the ropes.

 

Betty Boop is Looking For:  Many rescue dogs don't come with a back story. Betty Boop came with part of a story: 'Betty Boop was abandoned in a neighborhood in a city about 15 miles south of San Juan, Puerto Rico. She was malnourished and very skinny. Betty found shelter at an elderly woman's house in the neighborhood and the woman kept her tied up in her yard. The woman's granddaughter's boyfriend saw Betty and contacted a rescue for help to find her a home.'

 

So there you have it. Betty Boop is looking for food, shelter, and love. She's with the local PR rescue now - but wants nothing more than to get her own humans, to know where she belongs, to be safe and loved. She has so much love and loyalty to offer in return. 

 

What do you say? Does this tiny pup have a spot on your lap and in your life?

What My Foster Says About Me:  We will update this once she has spent time in foster care. 

Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training. 

TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online   at   bit.ly/adoptaluckydog  .

 

Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The adoption process begins when you submit an adoption application either online or at an adoption event. The individual responsible for the dog you are interested in adopting - a position we call the “adoption coordinator” - will then set up a time to discuss your application over the telephone. The adoption coordinator will check your vet reference to make sure all current and past pets were kept up-to-date with their shots and medical care. The adoption coordinator will also set up a home visit with one of our trained volunteers. That individual will come to your home to ensure that it is a safe environment, to confirm that everyone in the home is on board with adopting a dog, and to discuss any other questions you may have about dog adoption!

Go meet their pets

Our adoption events are held each weekend. A schedule of times and locations can be found at www.luckydoganimalrescue.org.
